 Over 25 million phones stolen in one year – FG The Crime Experience and Security Perception Survey report of the National Bureau of Statistics, a Federal Government agency, shows that Nigeria recorded 25.35 million phone theft cases between May 2023 and April 2024. According to the report, this was the most common type of crime within the period under review. The report read, “The number of crimes experienced by individuals in Nigeria was analysed over a period of time. The results show that theft of phones (25,354,417) was the most common crime experienced by individuals, followed by consumer fraud (12,107,210) and assault (8,453,258).

A BOY WORE SKIRT TO SCHOOL AFTER SHORTS WERE BANNED. (PHOTO).

A 15-year-old boy who wore a skirt to school because the rules said he wasn't allowed to wear shorts has forced teachers to make a U-turn, with his proud parents hailing him a 'legend'.
Joe Stratton's protest at Stafford School in Caterham, Surrey is thought to have seen an alteration to uniform policy that will allow shorts to be worn in hot weather outside of the summer term.
Joe returned to school on Tuesday in the shorts from his summer uniform but was told they were only for the summer term, according to his mum.

Instead, the teenager was informed that the uniform policy at the school meant he had the choice of either trousers or a skirt.

The Year 11 pupil opted for the latter and wore a skirt to school on Wednesday and Thursday to beat the summer heatwave.
 He also planned to do so, if needed, 'every day that he felt too hot to wear trousers', his mum, Jo Suleyman, said.

'He said most of his teachers either didn't notice and didn't say anything at all. Well, they must have noticed - or they were supportive of him,' the 38-year-old claimed.

'I don't think they expected him to actually do it.'

Joe's dad, Ronnie Stratton, described his son as a 'legend' and said he is 'extremely proud' of the youngster.

He added: 'At first, he thought he was going to get ridiculed and have the mickey taken out of him.

'But, like I told him, at the end of the day, you stand up for what you believe in. Why should he go to school hot and uncomfortable and then try to function in school? To function and be uncomfortable and hot, I don't think is right.'
Jo added that she had only heard her son's account but that 'most of the teachers in his lessons were quite proud of him for finding a peaceful way to prove his point that didn't hurt anybody and made a good point'.

Stafford School's uniform policy details two options for student in Years 7 to 10, uniform A or uniform B, as well as a uniform for Year 11 pupils.

Jo informed SurreyLive that on the second day of her son wearing a skirt she was told that children would be able to wear shorts on Friday. 

The school in Burntwood Lane confirmed it had sent a letter to parents on Thursday to say pupils could wear summer uniform.

Head of school, Jeff Place, said in the letter: 'The current intention is to revert to full normal uniform from Tuesday 12 September with temperatures dropping back. 
'We will carry out a more formal review of uniforms in due course, particularly regarding shorts as part of Uniform A for all times of year.'

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
